the index may have to be rebuilt after the upgrade
the initial rebuild of an index for a site this large could easily be multiple days..

just a guess..

is it just my eyes.. or do the colors not seem as crisp.. a little washed out?
could just be me.. since i assume they used the same template

The color selection in making a post doesn't work on Firefox 3.0.1 on Mac OSX Leopard.

Searching seems to suck even more now. Today I'm going to compile a list of upcoming DVDs that I want (Iron Man, The Big Lebowski, The Incredible Hulk, "30 Rock", "The Office") and their release dates, so I searched for their respecitve existing threads.

5 different searches in the main forum - "iron", "lebowski", "hulk", "office", "rock" - each at least the standard 20 seconds apart. Got the same reslut every time: "1. Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

Weird.

Hi,

I just performed a search using the terms "iron", "lebowski", "hulk", "office", "rock" and I could get quite a few results for each search. So could please tell try again and if you still get the error could please tell me which page were you searching from. The only problem with the search at present is that the pop up box does not pop up on a few pages and we are looking into it.

What is with the line between the poster name and the post, like in this thread:

http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=531622

It's not in every thread though, like this one I'm posting in now.

I just searched for the same titles, and the only results I got were from '02 and earlier.

This wont be a problem if I went back in time and haven't realized it yet. I'll look into that and update later.

I don't see any line except from between the original post and the Edit notification.

Otter Farm has an error at the top of the page. Looks like some stray HTML.

Sure thing. I just did all of the searches again, through the Advanced Search page using the keyword search (entire posts). All search options were kept at their default settings. Searching the DVD Talk forum, with the child forums box unchecked, I got:

"iron" - one thread (a locked upcoming release list from 2006)
"lebowski" - no matches
"hulk" - no matches
"office" - no matches
"rock" - two threads (the current Evil Dead thread and one compiling a list of defective DVDs)

It probably goes without saying, but I did not use quotation marks in my searches.

My browser is IE 6 and my OS is XP.

(Yeah, I prefer Firefox, but I'm at work and they don't like us downloading programs on these computers.)

I found a new feature under "networking" but now it's been turned off. :(

I tried starting a discussion via a review (Dexter) and got an error:

The following error was encountered:
*Don't know if the database statement is needed, but I thought I should remove it*

1017: Can't find file: '*removed*' (errno: 13)

I also got a similar error when clicking a review link at the top of the page, but now I can't remember which movie it was because others I've seen have worked so far.

That is broken. It's being looked into.

Ok, thanks.

El Scorcho 08-15-08 12:58 PM

We're still not allowed to personally attack users, plz to be turning that feature on?

Dr Mabuse 08-15-08 01:05 PM

El Scorcho you bastard!!!

Wow... that was quick work from the mods.

Th0r S1mpson 08-15-08 01:09 PM

El Scorcho you bastard!!!

Wow, it's apparently turned on for every post now. :confused:

Kittydreamer 08-15-08 01:12 PM

El Scorcho you bastard!!!

Hey, that's kinda cool. I wonder if they'll turn it on for other members?

fumanstan 08-15-08 01:18 PM

Nice. Other then the search I haven't noticed anything. Smiley drop down and stuff is all working for me.

The Cow 08-15-08 01:19 PM

El Scorcho you douche bag!!!

I like the variations option. :up:

We'll get new features eventually, and this was just the first step towards that. First get to the point where all existing features work with the new version and then start adding new features...

Venusian 08-15-08 01:48 PM

I haven't seen any ads.

Some of the new features were turned off while IB tries to fix the bugs.

Cardsfan111 08-15-08 01:52 PM

Now the number of posts you have shows up under your username/title/join date in your posts....that wasn't that way earlier, was it?

I kinda like that.
